About Matt Villei
Matt Villei is a News Writer for Collider. Having a deep appreciation for the games, films, and books he experienced growing up, Matt wanted to learn the inner workings of how these media pieces were made and how to make his own. He graduated from Hofstra University with a Film Studies degree and a Creative Writing minor with the hope of one day making something like the art he grew up enjoying.
With the willingness to dive headfirst into any topic, blockbuster or small, Matt has covered a range of topics throughout his time at Collider. From the violent ending of Attack on Titan and the multiverse adventure of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse to things like the lovely story of Violet Evergarden and the latest adventures of major franchises like the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Transformers, there is no story, franchise, or update that he won't be excited to explore. He has covered games, movies, and games being turned into movies. Everything he covers is with the same passion and focus that he has for his favorite pieces of media to ensure the Collider readers get the best article possible.
When not writing, he plays games, watches movies and professional wrestling, and spends time with his two Golden Retrievers.
